that's paul brown of georgia and on tuesday he won back his house seat and therefore his place on the house science committee. there was no suspense about his unopposed. but in a development worthy of national recognition, i need to tell you that nearly 4,000 of paul brown's constituents went into the voting booth on tuesday and decided that just voting for unopposed paul braun or just not voting for anybody in that race, nearly 4,000 people in his district decided they would write in a worthy opponent for him. nearly 4,000 in his district wrote in the name charles darwin. instead of voting for the evolution is lies from the pit of hill guy. which is maybe as good a reminder as we are ever going to get in this country that's not just when things seem dire that we should hope for improvement. sometimes even when things go great, good-bye todd akin, sometimes there is still room for yet more good news on top of something you already thought was pretty good. even great days sometimes get better. even something, for example, as great as a whiskey cocktail can be improved. so for a cocktai

i think actually the slogan for the republican party in 2016 is going to be hey brown people. because they're trying to warm up to hispanics at this point. i understand at the operative level, at the level of a steve schmidt. they clearly understand they've got to find a way to move at least a percentage, at least 35% of latino voters back into the persuadable column. their base is hardened in the parts of the country where nothing changed. their guys that were elected in the deep south were still there. they lost in some swing states like florida and illinois but in the deep parts of the country, their base listens to rush limbaugh. they're not evolving and house republicans are still afraid of being primaried and how they're going to sell that to scared house republicans. >> i have to add something if i may. because a band-aid is not going to work. and adding gonzalez and perez and juan and maria is not a sustainable solution. i hope what we're seeing as an olive branch is not just a token but we look at the strategic platform of what the party stands for so that it is truly

committee and i have to say a better one than reince priebus, he's an msnbc political analyst, and willie brown was mayor of san francisco. i have to say one thing about california, mayor, you know, i thought this race -- i'm going to say -- it was like the west greenwich village got the vote for everything. same-sex marriage, marijuana, raise taxes to pay for education. this is the most liberal electorate i have seen out there since lbj's day. your thoughts quickly on what happened tuesday. >> well, i think that what happened tuesday is the republican party literally gave it away. they have been obviously succumbing to whatever was required from the tea party for so long that they have gotten out of step with who the people are, what the people care about, and why the people would be motivated to vote. they didn't do a job of selling the republican party with anything anybody could support. >> okay. what's the suppression thing? we all know usually historically suppression means usually directed at the minority vote. we will make it difficult for you to vote. we will -- what do we call it? i c
